Karlis is has so far crossed the South Atlantic by rowing boat in 2016, South America by tandem bicycle in 2018 and the Pacific by rowing boat between 2018 and 2020. This talk will cover the journey with a specific focus on the Pacific row.

About Karlis Bardelis:
Karlis is the first person in the world to row from South America to Asia, over the course of 715 days. An ex-project manager in the field of waste management, Karlis realised at the age of 28 that visiting mountains just a couple of times a year wasn't enough for him, which led him to quit his job and start a new life of adventure and freedom. In 2013, he crossed Europe from North Cape to Gibraltar on Nordic skates in 60 days, covering more than 6150km. From end January till mid-February 2014, he and three other cycling enthusiasts traveled form Riga to Sochi by bicycle, realising a 2840km-long wintery ride and reaching the capital of the Winter Olympic Games of 2014 in 17 days.

As 'circuit breakers' finish in some countries and begin in others, Karlis' talk is your chance to escape the pandemic for an hour and get insired for your next adventure! Join the free RGS-Singapore webinar by clicking here -https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_dqB1LMJCS8qry2mKx2YS1A .
